Rating YouTube Videos for Teachers

The folks over at SmartTeaching.org recently compiled a list of the "100 Best YouTube Videos for Teachers," a compilation organized into nine categories: history, science, language, arts, inspiration, classroom management, how-tos and guides, technology, and humor.
